Get a Brighter Smile with the Zoom!® Teeth Whitening Technique

By Alex Hecht on January 26, 2015

Very few patients are completely satisfied with the appearance of their smile. Although there are many imperfections that can compromise the appearance of the teeth, one of the most common complaints we hear at Staten Island Aesthetic & Implant Dentist is that the teeth are not bright enough or white enough. Many are dissatisfied because the teeth appear dull or dingy and the color of the teeth is more yellow or gray than the white that most of our patients desire. Fortunately, our cosmetic dentistry services help eliminate aesthetic flaws so that patients can achieve a more attractive smile. One of these services is professional teeth whitening. Although there are many teeth whitening options available, many of our Staten Island patients prefer the Zoom!® teeth whitening technique because of its fast and effective results.

Zoom!® Teeth Whitening Treatment

Although many people want to brighten the color of their teeth, some don’t feel like they have time for a professional in-office teeth whitening treatment. Instead, many of these people opt for over-the-counter whitening options and are often dissatisfied with the results they achieve after several weeks of treatment. What many do not realize is that professional teeth whitening does not actually take a great deal of time. In fact, Zoom!® teeth whitening treatment can be completed in under an hour, making it a fast and convenient option for most of our patients.

We start the Zoom!® teeth whitening treatment by ensuring that the teeth are properly cleaned. This will help patients get maximum results from their teeth whitening treatment. Next, the gums and soft tissues of the mouth are protected by the placement of a special mouth guard. Our dentists will then apply a whitening gel to the surface of the teeth and expose the teeth to a light, which activates the ingredients of the whitening gel. After 15 minutes of exposure to this light, a new layer of whitening gel will be applied and the cycle will be repeated. Most Zoom!® teeth whitening treatments involve three of these 15-minute cycles.

The results of Zoom!® teeth whitening treatment are immediate. After cleaning the teeth of all traces of whitening gel, patients leave our office with a brighter and whiter smile. While results vary slightly, on average, patients will have teeth that are at least eight shades whiter.

Benefits of Zoom!® Teeth Whitening

Zoom!® teeth whitening benefits patients by offering treatment that is fast, safe, and effective. Patients will get brighter teeth than they could achieve with some of the alternate teeth whitening options, and in a shorter amount of time. Because the entire treatment process is supervised by one of our experienced dentists, patients can feel confident that the procedure is safe, with virtually no risk of complications.
